Autumn Sun (Dahlia) I
A truly unique treasure for your home or office capturing the forms of dahlia flowers. A precious moment in time forever preserved - generous blooms, buds and leaves, glorious in the garden as Summer warmth fades and Autumns chills the air. Displaying work like this in your home provides an invitation to pause, let your mind wander and have a moment to restore calm, connecting you to nature and the seasons.
Fusing photographic interests with printmaking practice by using light sensitive processes to record natural forms directly onto super heavy 640gsm handmade Khaki Indian rag paper.
Each artwork is a unique statement piece created using the cyanotype process.
My cyanotype body of work has evolved from explorations into light sensitive media and wanting to produce artwork in nature/from nature/about nature. Each is produced using the natural forms themselves as stencils and masks - instilling direct connections to nature into each and every piece and celebrating the preciousness of our natural world.
Cyanotype on 640gsm Khadi Indian Rag Paper 56 x 76 cm - ready to frame. These pieces arrive flat to preserve the integrity of the extra thick paper.

Cyanotypes are one of the earliest forms of photography and are today recognised as an alternative photographic process and as original printmaking. Lucy experiments with different types of cyanotype exposures and different ways of creating imagery. Using the natural forms themselves as stencils and masks as well as both analogue and digital drawings.
"Each part of the process comes with its own limitations and aspects you cannot fully control - luckily I have great faith in serendipity to lead the path forwards and take the artworks to new and unpredicted outcomes. For every success there are many failures - but it's worth it" Lucy Perry 2020
We try to represent colours as accurately as possible but differences in hue will occur due to variations in monitors and lighting. If you are interested in a artwork but unsure of how it will work with your space I can send you more images, even paint samples if you need to match a colour. It is also possible for me to produce an ‘insitu’ digital impression of how the piece would look in your room. Please email me if you wish to discuss this.
